Liverpool
3-3: Saturday, 13th MayNo further comments.
Liverpool
3-3: Saturday, 13th MayDespite picking the ball out of the net six times it was a relatively quiet afternoon for Hislop. He had little chance with any of Liverpool's three goals, whilst his penalty save from Hyypia should have proved more important.
Tottenham Hotspur
2-1: Sunday, 7th MayNo chance with the goal. Otherwise a fairly quiet game.

Middlesbrough
1-0: Sunday, 23rd AprilSome uncertain handling early on. Kicking not at its best but saved well when Boro’ finally got a free-kick on target.

Chelsea
1-4: Sunday, 9th AprilNot given much chance with the goals. One good save but might have helped his defence by coming for the ball occasionally.
Chelsea
1-4: Sunday, 9th AprilNot at the races and would have conceded more but for the woodwork.
Charlton Athletic
0-0: Sunday, 2nd AprilBarely tested, though not for the first time in recent weeks his handling caused a little concern when dealing with the only shot that tested him.
Manchester United

Manchester City
2-1: Monday, 20th MarchNot a great deal to do overall and despite one or two rickets it was a fairly accomplished performance.
Bolton Wanderers
2-1: Wednesday, 15th MarchNot an inspired performance. Didn't come off his line all night. Arguably should have saved their goal.
Bolton Wanderers
2-1: Wednesday, 15th MarchA poor night for for the Hammers keeper who looked nervous and far from commanding. Bolton's goal summed up his night.
Bolton Wanderers
1-4: Saturday, 11th MarchWasn’t at fault for any of the goals and made a couple of good saves against Okocha towards the end of the first half when Bolton were dominating. Getting a rating of 7 when you’ve just had 4 goals smacked past you lets you know he had a decent game. Some might question whether he should have punched in the build-up to Speed's goal but I thought it was the right choice and he did get some distance; rather lucky that it went straight to a Bolton player before Speed bicycle-kicked (for the first time that I can remember).
Everton
2-2: Saturday, 4th MarchNo chance with the goals. Needlessly rushed the odd clearance.
Everton
2-2: Saturday, 4th MarchNot much wrong, not helped by the guys in front.
Bolton Wanderers
0-0: Saturday, 18th FebruaryCoped comfortably with everything Bolton thew at him. A reassuring performance, especially so following the news of Carroll's injury. Most importantly - a third clean sheet in succession.
Birmingham City
3-0: Monday, 13th FebruaryOne fine save. A few for the cameras to relieve the boredom and a lot of retrieving the ball from the good people in row Z. Quiet evening really.
Birmingham City
3-0: Monday, 13th FebruaryOnly had one save of note to make but a second consecutive clean sheet at home will have done wonders for his confidence.
Sunderland
2-0: Saturday, 4th FebruaryLargely unemployed for most of the match. I was tempted to pop down and see if he wanted to borrow my coat.

Arsenal
3-2: Wednesday, 1st FebruaryLooked a little reluctant to dominate the six-yard box on occasion but made up for that with some excellent shot-stopping.
Blackburn Rovers
4-2: Saturday, 28th JanuaryEarly on when we were far from our best he seemed to be very reluctant to leave his line. However he pulled of three really good saves to keep us in the match at crucial moments.

Tottenham Hotspur
1-1: Sunday, 20th NovemberSome of his early handling looked a bit suspect and his indecision was costly over the goal but he made a fine save blocking Keane’s overhead kick in the second half.

1-0: Saturday, 5th NovemberLooked confident throughout up to the bang on the head. Looked groggy afterwards.

0-2: Monday, 31st OctoberWas by far the busiest keeper and made several excellent saves. Had little chance with the second goal but could possibly have been positioned slightly better for the first.
